How to do Briksdal glacier and Loen skylift in one day | Olden | Norway | P&O Iona | May 2024
Olden, Norway is like stepping into a postcard - especially on a clear day, the scenery is breathtaking and there are plenty of ways to explore this beautiful area.
Heading to Olden on a cruise? You have to try and do the Briksdal glacier and the Loen skylift (time dependent).
We booked the first glacier bus with Olden Adventures for 9:30am and made sure we were off the ship as soon as the doors opened for disembarking. The information posted states it takes 45 minutes each way to walk to the glacier but this doesn't account for stopping to take in the incredible views so allow more time to walk up! Albeit we are nerdy when it comes to stunning landscapes, I can guarantee you won't want to miss this.
If the glacier walk doesn't take your fancy, we also recommend the Loen boat trip and glacier view as an alternative. Some of our group did this in the morning and still had time to join us at the skylift in the afternoon.
We got the bus from the port to Loen skylift at 2pm. This gave us enough time to get up the skylift and spend some time at the top marvelling the views, making snow angels in the snow, and grabbing a drink from the cafe. Just make sure you know when your ship is due to depart and account for the time getting back down!
We booked with Olden Adventures as the times lined up better and it was all very straightforward and organised. We didn't feel rushed or stressed and could just enjoy our time in Olden.
I mention this in the video but the day in Olden was one of the best days I've ever had. Make sure you get off the ship for this place!

Our first cruise! P&O Iona | Norwegian Fjords | May 2024

As first time cruisers, this holiday could not have been more perfect for us. We did lots of research before we booked on companies, ships, port options, and dates and I think we made a great decision. Aside from Norway being spectacular and us falling in love with the country (more on that in the next vlogs!), this ship was the perfect way to sail through the fjords. Iona is a new ship and you...

A wholesome weekend in Cambridge - what a quaint walkable city! You could spend a few days just walking around, looking at the beautiful buildings, and reading about the history of this famous city. Of course we had to do the traditional punting on the River Cam. There are options to go with a guide or to rent the boats out on your own. We saw so many people stuck and struggling so I'm glad we ...

Winter in the UK: Usually cold, wet, and windy.

Hiya gang, the vids are awesome as usual jasmine, great to see you all having a great time, the views look jaw dropping, keep the vids coming
we are doing the Loen Lake and Kjenndal Glacier (which some of your group did) and sky lift. How was the timings? We booked the 10am excursion.
Have you booked with P&O or Olden Adventures? They booked the 10am Loen lake via Olden Adventures and if you select the skylift add on when you book, they drop you right at the skylift instead of taking you back to port. They met us up there around 3pm and we started heading back to port around 4:15pm (obviously depends when your ship is due to depart)
@@wanderingadventures thank you for explaining that. We was starting to panic as heard the queue back down skylift is crazy. We booked with olden adventures directly.
@ExtremeRoamer the queues come and go, and you can see through the glass how long it's looking. We waited until it died down so didn't have to wait long. As long as you set a cut off time for heading back down you should be fine. Speak to the staff at the top of the skylift too, they know how long you'll need to get back in plenty of time.
@@wanderingadventures thank you so much. You have put our mind at ease.
Looks great ❤❤❤
It was very good 😁
Bodhi and I loved this. He can't believe there is a swimming pool on the boat. Shame to see Mark has lost his basketball skill
Aww good 🥰 I couldn't believe there was a swimming pool on the boat! I maintain that I would have beat him if I had the proper shoes on 🏀
I've just seen this absolute slander
Great review and you've caught the cruise bug! We cruised to the fjords on Iona in 2022 and completely agree with your review. She is a lovely ship and it was great hearing Captain Wesley in the background describing the ships movement in his special way. We had a conservatory mini suite as a special anniversary treat (but not one of the controversial ones on deck eight). So glad you enjoyed your first cruise.
Definitely caught the bug! Captain Wesley was amazing, he made us feel very welcome and informed. Oh that sounds lovely, I think next time we will definitely have a balcony and we will probably be back to explore different Norwegian ports at some point 🙈
Welcome to cruising. There’s nothing else like it
We have definitely been converted to cruising! It's a case of where and when rather than if 😂
I was on that cruise! Great weather wasn't it

Can these items be seen from the HOHO bus - Colosseum Trevi Fountain Pantheon Piazza Navona Mouth of Truth Castle Saint Angelo Alter De La Patria St. Peters Basilica Spanish Steps Piazza De Spagna
The bus we used had the following stops: - Terminal - Santa Maria Maggiore - Colosseum - Circus Maximus - Piazza Venezia - Vatican City - Villa Borghese - Barberini Square This was for the Green route. We walked a short distance to the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish steps - I would recommend seeing these from the ground but the bus stops nearby to alight
Hi how much were the bus tickets from the camping site to the metro station?
You pay for one ticket that lasts an hour so you can use that one ticket for both the bus and the metro from camping village fabulous. It was about €3 when we were there
You’re a star thank you. Heading in July.. your videos are fab and really helpful. Keep up the good work ❤
@@marymurphy7548 thank you ☺️ have a great time!
Hello there, great video , How much was the bus ride to Rome and how long did it take? Thanks
Thank you! The bus to eur fermi (where you change to the metro) was around 20-25 mins then the metro was another 20-25 mins depending which stop you get off at. You pay for one ticket that lasts an hour so you can use that one ticket for both the bus and the metro. It was about €3 when we were there
Too difficult to hear you
Should camp on the hills out of the trees
We were planning to but the wind was far too strong to put the tents up! We were limited on good options 😂
Reminiscing about last year’s glasto! Such an amazing experience.
It really was! Wish I could do it all again 😂

Generally no. One was heated a little bit very cold in February!

Thanks so much for watching! Hope you have the best time this year 🎶 we didn't get tickets this year 😭💔 but will still be heading to another UK festival 👀
Great vlog about the Eden session, really helpful. I don't suppose you remember how difficult it was to get put after the concert? We've booked for one of them this year but can't decide whether to stay or not, bit worried campsites won't want us coming in late but obviously you got in OK. X
It was relatively easy to get out but there was a bit of waiting for buses/taxis. We stayed in a local campsite and the Eden Project put on a bus to and from which was a massive help and the campsite already knew people would be coming back late. I think a few local campsites have agreements for the sessions x
Thank you for this video. I got a last minute booking for this place and was worried it might not be comfortable, but your video actually helped to ease my mind--it looks great. Thank you for documenting this for everyone who travels there.
Glad it helped! Hope you have a great time 😁
What are the odds of me clicking on this video and seeing that you pitched up right at the same time, next to us. We're the little cluster of tents in the background to the right at 1:48
The puzzling collection of logs in city square is just that ..a meaningless artistic creation supposedly endorsing the right of the tree or some absurd fantasy ..from the familiar demented green mentality of others elsewhere
AAGH! Not the green mentality!!!
What are the odds of me clicking on this video and seeing that you pitched up right at the same time, next to us. We're the little cluster of tents in the background to the right at 1:48 🤣

best vlog ive seen in a few years did you get tickets for this year ?
Thank you ☺️ no we missed out this year 😭 will be trying out some other festivals instead!
Lovely episode my friend, so nicely filmed! 👏👏
Thank you so much 😊
We went around that time and we couldn't even get our tents pitched up it was that windy and when we finally did the yellow warning wind came and ripped them to pieces 😂😂😂 we were all soaking wet head to toe, then in the end we threw away our tent & left and had to crash at my aunties who luckily moved to wales from birmingham the year before, it was an absolutely horrendous time lol we plan to go this year as they refunded us but we will be checking the weather before hand aha Great video btw ✌🏼
Oh no! It ruined our tent too 😂 sounds like an eventful trip - good job there was someone close that you could go to! Hope the weather is better for you this year 🤞

Hope you don't mind me asking, what transportation did you use to get to the Celebration hotel from city center? :) Was wondering if there's another toddler-friendly option other than taking a private transfer to DisneySea/Disneyland then taking the shuttle to Celebration Hotel from there :) Thanks so much!
Hi! Always happy to answer questions ☺️ From Tokyo Station we got the metro Keiyō Line to Shin-Urayasu station but then walked 20 ish minutes (longer with suitcases) so maybe not toddler friendly. On the way back we got on the Limousine Bus service from outside the hotel and I would highly recommend that! You don't have to book in advance but if you have lots of luggage you may have to wait for the next one if it's full (luggage goes under the bus)
That was directly from the hotel into the city centre so avoided the Disney Sea/Disneyland change!
